Still not working
meowskins23
Even after the most recent update I am still just getting alerts and then nothing shows in the app at all. Very frustrating because this is the only app that steadily was reliable for years and now it isn’t :(
Information isn’t relevant

50mph winds, lightning, thunder, FEMA app says nothing. The emergency broadcast system interrupted my news program, otherwise would not have known.
County settings not retained
Davidjr1962
The counties selected in the alert areas are not retained. I have to reselect them every time I open the app. You mentioned in your version history you were working this issue over a year ago. Please get it fixed. I’m deleting this app until it’s fixed
Typical of Government Design

This app is inexcusably poorly designed. The UI is horrible, the feature set nearly nonexistent. I was getting multiple alerts a day for weather conditions that would not affect me, because I could only scope it to my county, not my city. Moreover, I can get the same alerts (except only those relevant to me) with any one of the popular weather apps.
Potential to be a great app

This is something I felt can be very useful. Currently it us a piece of poop! I’m receiving weather alerts for a different city, that is four hours away (nor in my county or even State). The alerts also come at odd times of the day/night which I understand however, it will ding high wind advisory, ding red flag warning, ding high wind advisory cancelled, ding red flag warning cancelled, ding weather freeze; all in seconds of each other. I don’t have time to completely read the first message before it’s canceled! I don’t mind receiving notifications of disasters around the world; but I do mind when the let a toddler send them out!!! That kid is randomly selecting messages!
Repeatedly resets Terms and Locations
TP92675
The app is a useful combination of weather and emergency info. The rating would’ve been higher except the app has reset the terms and locations about 6 times within the last 8 weeks. That annoyance should be fixed it users will just start to delete the app and stop using it.
Update deleted locations
The mgs
Since the latest update, my locations were deleted. There are also no alerts although I keep getting the pop up notifications and the app icon indicates the there are x number of alerts.
Clunky and terrible execution

The app will not remember your location. Not only is it annoying to constantly have to enter it, but it will give a severe weather alert, then when you open app the alert is gone and says you have to enter a location. A fundamental redesign is needed.
Bugs?
user for two years
App has been sending alerts, but when I open to see them there is nothing. Today I got over 6 flood alerts, non came up when I opened the app. Same thing happened a few days ago, I deleted then reinstalled the app, worked for a day and the same problem reoccurred. Locations were added multiple times but still the problem exists.
